Ryan Callahan had staffer girlfriend; she dumped him.

Today the world is asking why Rozlyn Papa would have blown her chance at romance with sexy Jake Pavelka for the Bachelor producer with whom it's been said Papa had a fling. The producer's name finally came out on Thursday -- it's Ryan Callahan, and the Rozlyn romp cost him his job and his own committed relationship.

Callahan had worked previously on last season's The Bachelorette that starred Canadian cutie Jillian Harris. He also produced the 2009 series The Cougar...which we did not see, but whose premise we can guess.

We learned that Callahan was in a relationship with another member of The Bachelor's production staff when the alleged affair with Rozlyn Papa surfaced. Apparently Callahan's girlfriend kicked him to the curb when she heard about his lust for bombshell Papa, and as we reported earlier this week, he was fired...and Rozlyn was sent home from the show with cameras watching immediately after being confronted by Bachelor host Chris Harrison.

Sometimes our hunt for love leaves us in the dust instead of in the limelight, eh Rozlyn Papa? (Read about her criminal record here.) Jake Pavelka might have benefitted from our exclusive interview with pro poker phenom Vanessa Rousso on four ways to spot if your lover is lying.
